Description

Psychological assessment is typically viewed as something one does to diagnose psychological disorders or to plan for or evaluate an intervention. In this Grand Rounds, Dr. Finn discusses Therapeutic Assessment, a brief intervention during which psychological testing is used collaboratively with clients to help them develop new self-narratives that are more coherent, accurate, useful, and compassionate. Dr. Finn summarizes more than 30 years of research on Therapeutic Assessment and its implication for other forms of psychological interventions. He also discusses the core values underlying Therapeutic Assessment. He also presents a case with a video of an actual client.
